“You wanted to destroy philosophy and poetry in order to make room for religion and morality”

Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel (1772–1829) German poet, critic and scholar

Du wolltest die Philosophie zerstören, und die Poesie, um Raum zu gewinnen für die Religion und Moral, die du verkanntest: aber du hast nichts zerstören können als dich selber.

“Someone in the back of the room started singing "God Bless America."”

David Sedaris (1956) American author

The thing about "God Bless America" is that, after a certain point, nobody really knows the words. There's always a weird mumbling that follows "Stand beside her and guide her," and lasts until "From the mountains to the prairies."
